PRESIDENT OBAMA; YOU PROMISED AN IMMIGRATION REFORM WITH JUSTICE AND DIGNITY.  WE WANT IT NOW!!

On May 1st We Will March to Demand a Stop to the Repression of the Immigrant Community, for a Just Immigration Reform, Education, Health, Liberty and Decent Jobs for EVERYONE!

We Demand:

WA-IRAC

Immediate legalization for EVERYONE with a clear process so immigrants and their families can obtain a permanent status and a path to citizenship

Stop the separation of our families, the massive raids and deportations

No to E-Verify database and work audits, these are not the answer to reform

No to the privatizing of detention centers and investing in education instead for all our students

No to criminalization of  immigrants and their families; immigration is not a matter of security, it is a human right
